Get 5,000 miles when U sign up for Internet Service

Surf the Web safely with POWERworx Online!

You can protect your children from objectionable websites with filtered
Internet access from POWERworx Online. Also, if you sign up now
you'll receive 5,000 Frequent Flyer miles on a major airline AND thirty
days free service. Register today at 1-888-562-2730 or go to http://freemiles.powerworx.net.

You've probably heard the Internet horror stories: a grandmother searching
for pie recipes who finds “cookbooks” on bomb-making; a nine year old girl
looking for Civil War information who stumbles on to images of mutilation
and torture.

The best solution to this problem is POWERworx Online's POWERblock, the
latest in filtering that keeps offensive content off your computer screen
while allowing safe access to the information you want and need. At the
Spring Internet World '98 conference, hundreds of industry experts rated
our system number one. It was more than 99.3% effective in filtering out
pornography, drugs, and other offensive material.

Darcy Justen, an avid Internet user and mother of five, tells why Internet
filtering is so important: “My children love surfing the web. However, I
canceled our membership because of the objectionable material they could
run into. With POWERworx' filtered Internet service, my children can surf
the Internet safely, even if I am not there to supervise.”

With filtering, unlimited access, free e-mail, five e-mail addresses,
ten Megs of web space, free 24 hour Tech support, and blazing fast, 56K
access speeds, we think POWERworx Online is an obvious choice. And we're
betting 5,000 Frequent Flyer miles that you'll agree. Again, to receive
your free miles and sign up for our service, register at 1-888-562-2730 or
go to http://freemiles.powerworx.net.

Hope it works

The miles are for United only and you'll be getting them 6-8 weeks after registering. They'll send you a certificate for 5k miles and they are transferable.

Just finished clarifying that:

You must call in to get both the 30-days free and the 5000 miles. The web-site only gives the miles option.

ANY major airline.

5000 mile certificate will be issued ONLY after 120 days of service, paid or free.

They use the Netscape platform so if you don't like Communicator you've got a problem.

I'm going to give it a shot because even at $19.95 X 3, the miles will only cost .01197 cents, and they've got phone numbers everyplace I travel.

Well, I signed up a couple of days ago.

I'm using Microsoft Internet Explorer and it works fine.

Also, I signed up on the internet for free miles + free month.

When I called them for additional info, I was informed that the miles were only for United.

Has anyone gotten the FF miles yet? It has been about a month since I signed up. When I called in about miles I was told that FF miles certificate is mailed out after 180 days after the sign up!

I'm not too satisfied with its connection speed and I was going to switch as soon as I get the miles. Looks like I have to stick with it for next 5 months.

P.S. Am I a sucker for FF miles or what?
